Sepecat "Jaguar"

The SEPECAT Jaguar is the result of a British-French project in the sixties. The aircraft was designed as a supersonic light attack-aircraft. The prototype flew for the first time on the 8th of september 1968. A total of 202 aircraft were delivered to the RAF, where it was designated with Gr.1, it now flies in four squadrons with the RAF. The Jaguar Gr.1 flew many sorties in the Gulf, and no Jaguars were shot down during the conflict, there aren't too many coalition aircraft of which that can be said, it proves that old doesn't have to mean obsolete.
